https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113603 --- Comment #8 from Christian Lehmann --- > Other than that I like how iWorks does the job (Jay's screencast). Indeed, pretty good. But how does one insert new or shifted columns/rows at a certain position? For shifting a column/row, you don't need my little triangles; a wandering arrow or red line, as in Thunderbird's bookmarks management, would be sufficient. But for inserting new columns/rows, I cannot think of a more user-friendly solution. (Consider that inserting in front of a certain position 1) is programmer's thinking and 2) does not work if you want to add them after the last column/row. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113603 --- Comment #5 from Christian Lehmann --- Hi Heiko, not being a developer, I am, of course, in no position to fight for my proposal. Nevertheless, here are a few clarifications: - According to my proposal, a frame is drawn around a table if the user is editing the table. This would be as helpful in Writer as it is in Calc. - Doing anything with the table just only because the cursor is hovering over it does not seem a good idea to me; this might indeed be annoying to the user. - The point is not to give the user feedback on the state that Writer is currently in. The point is to render table management clear and simple. In my proposal, I had counted numbers of mouse clicks and keys pressed. None of the alternate proposals that have been mentioned fare better on this count. - My proposal is not restricted to operations of Copy/Cut/Paste (incl. Shift). It offers unified management of a whole set of further table operations. Moreover, is uniformity across different applications in LO not a virtue? - Is it an essential aspect of LO policy that it should imitate MS Word? Particularly in questions of table management, this would seem a bad idea to me. (There are, to be sure, features in which Word does fare better.) - When you write "The proposal doesn't consider a selection within the table (e.g. A2:B3)", you are not referring to my proposal, are you? Its entire section 2 is devoted to this problem.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=113603 --- Comment #4 from Heiko Tietze --- Created attachment 137588 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=137588&action=edit Mockup for simple table management Word cuts out the col/row and inserts it above or left of the new selection. User feedback is given via cursor which turns into an arrow down/left at the respective position at the table (plus a 'select all' floating button at top/left). We do the same for user feedback, and I think that's sufficient. Adding a lot of decorations around the table on hoover might be annoying for most users who don't want to manipulate rows/cols and is not much helpful for the rest. I fully agree on the other hand with cutting the col/row and a 'natural pasting'. So when the clipboard contains structured data it should be added as this. Word extends the table if the cursor is not at the first col/row (e.g. at B2), which makes sense. Missing in Word is a way to simply copy the data and keep the structure. We could make this possible by keeping the current behavior when only cells are selected. But in case the full col/row is selected it should also use the table structure. Tried to illustrate this in the attachment. The proposal doesn't consider a selection within the table (e.g. A2:B3). In this case Word and Writer work the same way and keep the source structure intact and paste the content into the target cells (data are overridden without warning). Would keep this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise

WPS Writer on the other hand shows its table management functions (move, resize, insert row, insert column) when hovering over a table. iWork Pages also has an interesting click behaviour, where if you click on a table it selects the table, similar to how when we click on an image it selects the image. Then when selected, clicking on a cell highlights the cell and you can then click and hold to drag or click and drag to alter the highlight. A third click brings you into the cell for editing its contents. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise

But your text might be a bit too long for most readers. So could you please add mockups? If you need support we can do that together (ping me on IRC or Telegram or here). Ideally, your solution would also solve some of the other issue with table styles (see bug 103100). At least some references may support the overall comprehension of the problem.
